The purpose of the CDC-J&I is to fund infrastructure projects and other support services that provide Cashless Debit Card participants with training and job opportunities.

The CDC-J&I is responding to the feedback from communities who are seeking to be empowered to create culturally appropriate jobs that will help break the cycle of welfare dependence and support their communities to thrive.

This may include work in constructing infrastructure projects, on the job training opportunities as well as projects that will ultimately provide employment through the day-to-day operations of new infrastructure.

The funding is also available for additional support services that deliver training, provide job readiness skills and connect Cashless Debit Card participants to other supports they may need to help them to move into employment.

Organisations in the remote regions of Ceduna in South Australia; East Kimberley and the Goldfields in Western Australia; Cape York in Queensland and the Northern Territory are invited to apply.

Up to $10 million will be available to support new projects that will provide employment and training opportunities for Cashless Debit Card participants within their communities.
